Hi! I just got a new computer recently, and I'm concerned about browser security and security in general. Any recommendations for a good secure browser? Preferably open source.

I personally go for firefox on desktop (with AdGuard/UBlock) and with Mull (Firefox based) on mobile with the same extensions (yes, you can add practically any extension to firefox mobile).

If you prefer a chromium based browser, brave is fine, even if I don't like some of their choices. An alternative on mobile is mulch - that is based on chromium and available on fdroid.

Both mull and mulch are part of a privacy oriented project. I like firefox on phones more than chromium based, while on tablets it struggles IMHO.

I tried it but I could not install Auto Cookiedelete extension on it. Any hints?

Just wish there were true Safari alternatives on iOS. :/
